What size venturi do you have in the carb? The venturies are replaceable on the Weber, and the size will affect the jets that you need.

You should be able to see the size in the top edge of the venturi. I'm assuming this is a 48IDA, you should have somewhere around a 38 to 42mm venturi in there depending on what it was sized for.

I have a feeling that your IDA is off the shelf item. 37 is too small for street use. You have go up to at least a 40, 70 idle, 250+ needle/seat, 150 air and 200+ main plus total 3 progression holes per barrel. Play with jets and work your way up

Venturis where hard to find a few months back we ended up going with some Gene Berg made units.
